surprised to End that If the doorway was
enlarged to let the musical instrument in,
the family, for want of the room it occu-
pied, would have to sleep outside. She
took the only course possible under the
circumstances, moved for the instant
erection Of frame house, and was COM
fortablY domiciled with her piano in Just
the nook she wanted for it in the course
of q very few months. Most women have
way of taking their home and good
many home comforts with them wherever
they go.
OF the women who have had the coUr-
age to make bold departure for them
selves some few have been successful,
conspicuously among the rich women Ct
the country. There is Mrs. Bishop Hif
Warren, who is credited with being the
Wealthiest woman in Colorado. She is
worth $40, 900, and has made it on
cattle with no other business advice than
that furnished by her own mother wit.
Another cattle queen who has Smassed
about 100000 is Mrs. Rogers,
the wife of minister in Corpus
Christi, Tex. Her husband minis
tiers to the spiritual wants OF widely
scattered congregation, but Mrs. Rogers,
whose talents are of the business order,
went into stock raising on 8 small scale,
experimentallY, some time ago. She
gave her personal attention to the mat
ter from the start, leaving very little to
the overseers. She bought for herself,
sold for herself, knew how her cattle
were fed, learned 10 be g fearless rider,
and was over the range about as fire.
quently as the cowboys she employed and
more carefully. She enlarged her enter
prlses every season, and her business is
still growing to-day.
Two rich widows who have inherited
ranches from their husbands areMrs Mas
seyof Colorado and Mrs Mary Easterly Of
Nevada. Mrs. Massey went TO Colorado
as agent for life insurance company,
married man with 1900 head of cattle
and, it is said, manages them quite as
well as he did. Mrs. Easterly has not 9
large herd, but her stock is of q fine
grade and she gets good prices tor 1t.
She is worth 100000 maybe. Mrs. Iliff,
widow of John Lift, the cate king, and
Mrs. Meredith, widow of General Mere
dith of Illinois, are excellent bus
mess women, and making money on
stock. OF unmarried women there is
Clara Dempsey Of Nevada as well as
Ellen Callahan OF recent newspaper fame, |
who are worth, the one $4,000, the othor |
rather less, which they have earned frola |
the initisl dollar themselves, and who /
are young women to have made so fair a !
start in the world. The Marquise de |
Mores, though she leaves stock raising to
her husband, enjoys life on the ranch and |
spends a good share of her time in the |

MISS Kellogg to Marry.

There is q rGmor current in musical
circles that Miss Clara Louise Kellogg is
crCe more, if nos literally On the brink,
at least in the immediate neighborhOOd,
Of the Chasm of matrimony. If the story
is true this is to be reckoned as Miss KeI-
logg's third step in the direction OF
welded bliss, and if there is any virtue
in the French saying thai the third time
is q charm, the prima donna'S marriage
may be Chronicled in the fall. As the
tale is told by people familiar with the
songstress's private life, she was
once very close upon bearing the
name Of Mr.. Wright Sanford. A
few years ago she all but became Mrs.
Tom Whitney, and gossip adds that her
memories of Mr.. w. were not easily
effaced. Her present sutton, learn, is a
young gentle man interested in theatrical
and musical affairs, neither handsome
nor wealthy, but clever and industrious.
He is very much the prima donna's
junior, but the lady will hardly fine fault
with the difference between her age and
that Of her husband, and he, as a sensi-
bic person, will overlook good many
things when he thinks that his wife has q
fortune of about Sl50,000 besides being
Ill musiClHu auu lluSu4SI,
and an amiable woman-When she chooses
to be. Miss Kellogg might make a
far worse match than the one that
people are now whispering about. She
has thus far been as wise IN love matters
as in business, and has sbilfully avoided
matrimonial alliance with the peNniless
"societY men, whom she would have
had to support, or with foreign-born
singers whose caprices she would haYe
had to bear with. Specimens of the last
named genus, indeed, never had any
charms for Miss Kellogg, who, like all
intelligent vocalists, looked beyond the
romance Of the garden scene in "Faust"
to the disorder of the hotel room, the
mingling odor of tobacco and macaroni,
and the Bohemianism and discomfort Of
artist life generally, away from the
glamor of the stage New York Town

London telegraph
The memory of the loss of 100000 O
silver and gold will survive the loss o.
1000 souls in coup. There was tht
Lutine, for instance. She was of thirty
two guns, commanded by Captain
SKINNER, and she went ashore on The
bank of the Fly island passage on the
night OF October 8, 1799. At first she
was reputed to have had E6OO, 900 worth
of specie on board. This was afterward
contradicted by statement that "the
return from the bullion Office makes the
whole amount fl@0, 600 sterling'' ttIf,"
1 find In contemporary account, "the
! wreck of the unfortunate Lutine should
De discovered, there may be some reason
to hope for the recovery Of the bullion /"
In the reign FLAMES II. some English
Adventures fitted out a vessel to search
for and weigh up the cargo of tue rich
| Spanish ship which had been lost on the
coast OF South America. They succeeded
AMI brought home 100000, which had
been fOrtyfour yesrs at the bottom Of
the sea. Captain Phipps, who command
ed, had 100000 for his share, and the
| Duke OF Albemsrle go, 900. A medal was
struck in honor of this event in 1887.
There was very costly wreck in 1867.
She was q Dutch East Indianlan and
fOundered within three leagues of the
Texel, taking down all hands but SIX and
$500, 090. The price Of four such armadas
as that of 1855 went down in the last
century Rlone in the shape of gold, silver
and plate. She WAS the annual register
ship, as the term then WAS, and had IN her
800, 900 piastres and 10000 ounces ofgold
on account of the king, and twice that
sum on the merchants account, making
her q very rich ship. She foundered- and
no man escaped to tell how or when
In the same year the Dutch lost the
Antoinetta, an Indiaman, and with her
sank E709, 600 sterling, beside Jewels of
great value The Royal Charter is the
most notable modern instance OF the
wreck of q "treasure" ship that I can lust
now call TO mind. She left Australia
with E35C, 900 in her. OF this sum, says
Charles Dickens, in his chapter on this
dreadful shlpwreCk in 1.-THE UnCOmmer-
cial Traveller" $500, 900 worth were
recovered at the time of the noveIst's
visit to the SPOT where she had driven
ashore. "rhe great bulk of the remain
der" writes Dickens, ''was surely and
steadily coming up. Some loss
of sovereigns there would be, of
course; indeed, at first, sovereigns had
drifted in with the sand and been scat
tered far and wide over the beach, like
sea shells, but most other golden
treasures would be found. So tremendous
had the force of the sea been when it
broke the ship that it had beaten one
great ingOt Of gold deep into q strong and
heavy piece OF her heavy iron work, in
which also several loose soVereigns that

''I rick my hopes of salvation" said q
rather impulsive business man, con the

is getting of late to be unbearable. She
is forgetfuI, careless, lazy and impudent.
She insists on being treated with an en-
barrassment of consideration that simply
interferes with business. It's different If

ComoIy Alaskan Maids.

a girl becomes woman at the age OF
twelve or thirteen years in Alaska, says q
writer in the Omaha Republican, and I
have seen some such girls who were
really quite pretty. The best looking of
the young Alaskan girls are the Indians
who are found along the Stickeen river
valley, or the Haldah girls of the Prince
Of Wales island. Here is q picture Of
Julia, q Stickeen river girl. She is
dressed in plain cotton garment and she
has Turkish bath towel wound around
her head for ornament. There is a ring
il her nose, and she has a pair OF
very soft, beautiful eyes. Julia, like
all Indian girls here, dresses in q
long, plain cotton undergarment when ct
home, and when she goes out she has a
gaYly -colored blanket which she throws
about her shoulders. The Haidah girls
have relatively fair skins, soft, dove-like
eyes, very small symmetrical hands and
small feet, and their insteps are so high
that the water can run under them with
out touching the sole. They are very
passionate and hot-blooded, and they
would be graceful were it not for their
pigeon-toed gait. They are really modest
when in the presence of white men, keep
their eyes nearly always on the ground
and are forward in no way whatever.
Some of them have delicate peach
bloom blush or blood mantling upon
their cheeks, and their Complexion is
that OF a very dark brunette.

timely. The mineral deposits Of Texas
